You can't use something else that cvsup as update command for port
trees or jails. The example in the README doesn't work (it will still
try to use cvsup). From glancing at the code it seems -P's values isn't
used by ./tc  (and it's used wrong by ./create).

I don't have my last full session of trial and error, but if you want I
could set up a tinderbox on my desktop and give you a script(1) session
of it or something like that.
